A Dose of Encouragement about when we need encouragement Today and what it has to do with Obedience.
If you are in the UK and can remember back quite a few years you may be able to remember a song called "Happiness" It was recorded in the 60s but was extremely well-known for many years. I was in the bathroom running a bath last Thursday afternoon when suddenly I started to sing this old song. Now I was headed out later in the day for a doctor's appointment and if anyone had asked me if I was happy I probably would have thought I wasn't really so why was I singing this song? Well here is the reason In a post last year I talked about 5 Little Touches I had used to make the bathroom of this house mine as opposed to just being the bathroom I ended up with from the previous owners of the house. One of these things was my bath pillow which I got new because my old one was too well worn. I had noticed this one in a bargain shop called B&M which I love to browse round any time I am near it. I knew it would match the decor and it just made me smile to look at it. It is also extremely soft. So obviously as I was preparing my bath I had subconsciously noticed the bath pillow and the chorus of that song just popped into my head. I had some time to think about those words and how I felt while singing them as I soaked in my nice, long, hot bubble bath. I have been blessed with a lot of happiness as well as joy. I am often happy about little things that may seem silly to others I just love to have a laugh at some of the silly things that made me happy. And I am very thankful to God for being like that and finding happiness in little things. But it was the first sentence that I really started to dwell on as I lay in that bath. Yes I could say that God had gifted me with things to make me happy or even say He had gifted me with Happiness although it is not the greatest thing that He has given me. But what about the fact that happiness is something we can help to give to others. We can give various things to others but do we give them something to make them happy? What about those little letters and cards we talked about 2 weeks ago in the post Tears over a Little Letter? Of course making someone happy does not always involve giving them an actual physical object. We can bring happiness into someone's life in many other ways. Maybe we can help them out with a task that they can't do for themselves or just give them some support like in I Had Plans a post from last year. I have another object in my bathroom that reminds me of something else. What about helping someone to come to know the saving grace of the Lord Jesus so that they can know His forgiveness of their sin and become a child of God? Share with them the knowledge of the greatest gift God has for them. Yes, Happiness is not the greatest gift God has given me because here is the greatest gift in this verse, the gift of Salvation. The words of that song may not be completely true but they did nudge me into thinking about happiness, and I do thank God that I am blessed with happiness and also the deep joy of knowing Him. So let's be encouraged to go and share some happiness with others. Perhaps then some day you will be able to share the Bible verse with them as well.

I collect Noah's Arks, - but I don't think there's a Flood coming! Some people have joked with me about "is there a flood coming?" when they have seen my collection (or some of it) of Noah's Arks. I have always loved arks and pictures of Arks but my collection really began when our daughter was about 8 or 9. Linda went on a weekend away with a Christian organization called Girl Crusaders. While she was away she saw a poster picture of an Ark and decided to buy it as a present for me. On the journey home the corner got dog-eared and Linda was very disappointed but I love my picture. It was put into a blue frame and has always been in view somewhere in our home ever since. In our present home it sits on top of a bookshelf in the Sun Room. Can you see the crease in the top right corner? Well since then I have collected: An Egg from America On the Mantlepiece in the lounge A Utensils Holder On top of my Paper drawer set in my study A Money Box & Snow Globe On the bookshelves in my study A Wall Hanging In our guest room A Decorative Plate, Beleek Biscuit Barrel, Silver Trinket Box & Decorative Tea Pot All 4 of these have ended up on the large dresser that is now in our kitchen A Photo Frame On the corner edge of the kitchen worktop Some Bags On the back of the door of my study A Memories Box Which can be found in various locations Cushions On our various couches / settees An Apron Also on the back of the door in my study - used for crafting. More Pictures In various rooms Plus a Clock In the kitchen A Wooden Carved Ark with Animals When our oldest son went to Malawi for 3 months to work with a missionary couple he brought it back for me and he had me in tears at this lovely gift. The Ark has always been very special to me. In the Ark there is safety - God's Protection In the Ark there is compassion - God's Mercy In the Ark there is forgiveness - God's Grace The Ark is a symbol of Salvation and our salvation is in Jesus so the Ark is a symbol of Jesus. When I was young and accepted God's Gift of Salvation I knew I was safe. Even though I may not have understood all about God or Jesus or the Holy Spirit or the Bible; I still recognized the fact that I was safe with Jesus. So even though some may joke about my Arks my friend Jennifer in Belgium saw things differently and has always referred to our home as the safe Ark. Are you safe with Jesus? Are you in the Ark which is Christ Jesus? As a teenager I listened to songs by Len Magee and one of them asks the question "Are you in the Ark, or are you outside?" I want to encourage you today with some other words from that song Oh don't hesitate You'll be too late His arms' open wide there will come a time when it is too late but right now it's not! So please consider that Question again "Are you in the Ark, or are you outside?" and but also with the fact that You can be safe with Jesus, He is the only one you can truly trust.

Previously I had written about Reading One Verse a Day and writing down my immediate thoughts on it and I posted them on facebook for a month. This had stemmed from me trying to form a new habit where I would read a verse of the bible before I would read my emails each morning. Well they say if you do something every day for a month you will form a new habit but I am proof that unfortunately it is just not true. It is easier to skim through emails while still half asleep than to sit and take in some Words of Scripture. I'm being honest here. I need to sip my coffee first thing in the morning and gradually come round because I am not a jump out of bed and be bustling with energy type of person. I'm more the don't talk to me or ask me to make any decisions until I've had my coffee. However since this experiment I have been reading a few verses at a time and seeing a benefit from that which I didn't really see before. I am seeing that even one verse read (no matter how quickly) can leave a thought, idea, or even just one word that may simmer inside and come to fruition later. I was always more the "read at least a proper paragraph" person because I always felt like everything should be read in context. Now I'm more "yes I need my context to fully understand" but I also sometimes need a sentence or a word to jar into my subconscious and edge into my thoughts later in the day" So I was coming to the realisation that there is no right or wrong way to read your bible. The most important thing was to read it. So - What about those times when we come to a passage that we feel we know so well? Do we skip it? Do we skim over it? Photo from Graphic Stock Do we read it and let our minds wander as we do so? Do we read it quickly and think we know what is there and we have already got the relevance of it in the past? Do we read it and accept that it is relevant for us TODAY not just because it is part of God's Word but because it is the part He has brought us to TODAY? I love to read but as time goes by I find that I am skim reading more and more and later I cannot fully explain what I have been reading because as I skim read I am not getting the full details of the subject matter and also not taking the time to let the information register in my brain. I need to get back to reading more slowly and reading every word. So I was coming back to the realisation that there is a right and wrong way to read your bible. The wrong way is to skim through it. Is there a Right Way or Wrong Way to Read your Bible? God's Word is important for my everyday life and I want to encourage you that it is important for your everyday life as well. Let's get back to actually reading it and absorbing it instead of skimming it. Or Thinking we know it well enough already that we can skip bits out.

I know, I know, that sounds ridiculous: how can a girl turn into her father? Well the thing is I can remember well the times years ago when my father would need to buy something new and we would get annoyed at his choices. Basically because he hadn't made any new choices. You see I remember the day my dad came in and showed me a new tie he had bought and I was very bewildered because I was sure that I had seen that same tie often; tied around his neck. I was right he had simply gone out and got himself the exact same tie. Why had he done that? Well his response was that the other one had started to fray a little. Yes, if the tie was fraying then it probably was time to pop it in the bin and maybe even a good reason to go buy another one but not to buy one the same surely. However my father was very pleased that he had managed to get the same tie. Then I remember the shoes he liked to buy, & the sweaters; practically the exact same each time. When he needed anything he liked to get the same as he had before. I'm sure it was a relief to my mum that he was not that interested in buying furniture for the house so she got to go pick that and we did not have something just like the previous one. There was one main exception; he did not get the same car each time. But I think that had more to do with the fact that he felt he didn't know as much about cars as my brother-in-law did, so he would take his advice on that issue. So have you guessed it yet? Why I say I'm turning into my father? I love to wear slippers around the house. As soon as I get home I take off my shoes and on go the slippers. Due to the situation of where we live now and the fact that I am not working, I do spend a lot of time in the house so I have slippers on for many hours each day. What have I discovered? In the last 3 years since we moved to this area I have gone to the same shop and bought the same slippers on several occasions. The last two times I bought two pairs at the same time. I don't just mean the same style of slippers, or the same make of slippers; I mean the same make, style, pattern and colour (blue of course). It actually started before we moved here, while we were still living in Belgium. For the last few years there I had bought the same slippers each time (not the same as here though). I just got to the stage where when I found a really comfortable pair of slippers at a reasonable price then why go looking for any others. And It's not only the slippers. No it has now progressed to my shoes. I discovered a very comfortable pair of black shoes and loved them so much that when I saw them in cream I got a pair of those also. Since then I have bought 2 more pairs in cream and two more in black. Hence when I am not wearing my boots you will find me in these cream or black shoes. Undoubtedly I am turning into my father. There is one time when I wear a different type of shoe. On Sundays going to church I wear a more dressy shoe and I do have a variety that I can wear. But of course as you already know, as soon as I return home from church I won't have the shoes on. I'll be in my slippers. There is a white top that I just love to wear and have worn it for over 10 years. This top has v neck short sleeves and has a butterfly design to one side which is made from little diamante things. It has always been easy to wash and only recently have I found that it is not as easy to get stains out of as it used to be. I have searched but cannot find the same top - of course I can't when it is so old. I just wish that I had got 2 of these (or even 3) because I would wear it with almost anything. Do you not agree that I am turning into my father? I mentioned this to my sister one evening a few weeks ago and she laughed at me, but then she did agree because she remembered being with me a few years ago when I actually did buy two of the same black top (I knew that it was going to be a good one as soon as I tried it on and I was right). She also remembered that just that same afternoon I had complained when I was in the shoe shop (the one all those slippers had come from) because I could not see the same slippers and I am down to my last pair - why did I not buy more! I am worried now that I am not going to be able to get those same ones again. I suppose we all have to admit that some things are passed down to us from our parents; likes and dislikes, some habits, some distinguishing features, some attitudes. Unfortunately we don't always get the good attitudes, habits, likes, or features. More often we tend to pick up the bad habits and attitudes. Thankfully we can't pick up any bad habits from our Heavenly Father, we don't witness Him having a bad attitude, He has no ugly features for us to inherit. No, our Heavenly Father only has beauty to pass down to us, grace, mercy and loving attitudes that we can learn from and only good examples of good habits to set us like forgiving over and over again. Thank you Father for your love and all the great attributes we see in you and in Jesus. Help us to focus on these and grow to be more like you day by day. Amen. I want to be able to see that I am growing more like Jesus and my Heavenly Father in all parts of my life. Do you?
One Sunday afternoon we went to visit Fred’s aunt in hospital. As we were sitting chatting Fred’s uncle nodded off to sleep for a few minutes, later that afternoon his dad nodded off sitting in our house and in the early evening Fred himself nodded off. Does it run in the family or what? Well I remember when my dad used to nod off on occasions too, so is it a “Man” thing? We usually laugh about it but sometimes I get annoyed at Fred because I don’t think I’m that boring really. The next morning when I sat down to read my bible, I found I had got to Psalm 121. Well because it’s rather well known I immediately thought I’ll read this one quickly and get on to the next one. However, verses 3 & 4 made me sit up and take notice. It says God will neither slumber nor sleep and I of course thought back to the day before. This was now much more meaningful because suddenly I felt that I had the proof that I’m not boring to God, He is always interested in what I’m doing and is always listening and attentive to my needs and fears and anything else I’m thinking about. We may sometimes think things are boring or uneventful or going on the same, day after day, but God doesn’t. He doesn't find us boring because He loves us. So remember that you, yes you are loved by God and you are so important to Him that He isn’t nodding off at any moment at all. I am so thankful that God doesn't slumber or sleep, are you? Have you read Psalm 121 recently? If not maybe you could just take a little moment to read it now and be encouraged.

The other day I saw a kindle ebook titled "In Pursuit" advertised for Free. Now I will always give an ebook a second glance if it is free but sometimes on my iPad the picture of the book is quite small so as this was the case I enlarged the picture and then ended up laughing out loud (no one heard me as Fred was resting in front of the TV in the lounge after having a tooth extracted and I was in my study). Why did I laugh? Because I could not believe the tagline of the ebook "Devotions for the Hunter & Fisherman" Now I come from Northern Ireland and we have few hunters here. Even when we lived in the US for 3 years we did not live in an area known for a lot of hunting. Northern Ireland does have a lot of Fishermen though but of the ones I know I could not imagine any of them looking for a devotional book specifically for them. Anyway after I laughed the next thing out of my mouth were the words "Next we will have Bibles produced specifically for people of all different interests" and yes I was still on my own and no-one could hear me but have you never talked to yourself? Then I realised that we had already reached this ridiculous point in life. Yes already we had reached the point where the publishers of Bibles as well as devotionals were specifically targeting all the different sections of the community to sell more books and Bibles. I had to wonder why? Was the bible written with different verses for a man than for a woman? Was the bible written with different verses for a single person than a married one? Was the bible written with different verses for a Pentecostal than an Anglican? Was the bible written with different verses for a teenager than for an adult? Was the bible written with different verses for a hunter than for a doctor? Did we need to have a different Bible for an engineer than for a teacher or a housewife? Because if so then my husband the Mechanical Engineer and I a Mathematics Teacher turned Housewife, could not read the same Bible together because of our occupations and of course also because we are not of the same sex. Just think- We could not have read the Bible as a family together when the kids were teenagers. We could not read the Bible together as a family now because some are Pentecostal and some are Anglican. We could not read the Bible together as a family now because some are single and some are married. What would be next? Would we have to have different Bibles for people of all different race or nationality? Let's put some pink or purple covers on them because that will appeal to the females they had decided at one stage. Well I certainly didn't get hooked in then because I much prefer black or brown or blue books so no pretty feminine looking Bible for me. But of course this was nothing to do with it at all - they simply wanted to sell more Bibles. Now I know I'm sounding a bit extreme but my main problem is not with all the different speciality bibles or devotionals so much as with the purpose of our bibles. When the Bible was written I am so thankful that it was written for all of us regardless of gender, age, race, intelligence etc. When Jesus came to this earth He came for one specific reason to do His Father's will and be the ransom for each one of us, the one who would take all our sins on himself and die in our place I am so thankful that He did not differentiate between us. So this inspired Word of God which was written for all of us to know the Truth of the Lord Jesus Christ and be set free from our old self and renewed by God's Spirit; was written for each and every one of us. And it doesn't matter how many bibles we have, what size they are, how expensive they are, how many notes are included in them, how used or how new they are, or what colour they are. The important thing is that we read our Bible and we grow in the Grace of our Lord and Saviour as we do so. So the question is - Are You in Pursuit Are you reading your bible? Are you praying for understanding of what you are reading in your Bible? Are you praying for direction and guidance by the Holy Spirit as you read your Bible? Are you actively, regularly, hungrily, reading your Bible? Are you looking to gain insight and truth as you read your Bible? Are you praying that you will rightly apply what you read in your Bible to your everyday life? Are you depending on God for your nurture from your Bible (His Word) and not just listening to what other people say about it. Are you looking to preachers and teachers of sound doctrine when you need more help to fully understand some passages from your Bible? Are you in PURSUIT of the truth and edification in God's Word? I know I'm not in pursuit of God's Word as much as I should be. Are you? Let's be encouraged today to go read that passage we have been meaning to read. Let's be encouraged today to relax & drink in from God's Word no matter what colour our bible might be.
Children make a lot of crafts at school and Sunday School especially at special times like Christmas. How many times have you run out of magnets to attach another picture created especially for you? Some people keep all of their children's pictures but we didn't, we just enjoyed them at the time and then enjoyed the next one and the next one and the next...... However some other things the children have made for us or bought us have been kept and one of these things is one of the decorations Fred and I put up on our Christmas Tree last week. I have never worked out what a fan has to do with Christmas but then I suppose a lot of the decorations we have for this festive time do not really relate to Christmas time so why should this one have to. It is gold and green and tones in with what we expect colour schemes to be at Christmas time. It was made by our son Daniel many, many years ago and although we do not wrap it up carefully each year as we do with some of the other ornaments for the tree, it has never got damaged in all the years. But even though this fan does not remind me especially of Christmas or the Bible it does remind me of Love. Daniel made it carefully and it was well-made. He gave it to us for the tree and even though this was probably prompted by his teacher, all these years later I see Love in this simple tree decoration. I don't particularly think Daniel was thinking about how much he loved us when he gave it to us but I do know that because it was made by him that I love it. It certainly is not because of the colours as I am not very fond of green but you see colours do not mean anything in this case. It is the fact that this was made by my son, that is special to me. God also took delight in His Son Jesus and His actions. God even spoke out and told people how pleased He was with His Precious Son. Do we speak favourably about our children? Do we tell others how much we love our children? Do we tell our children how much we love them? The next time you see something that was given to you by your child or made by them think about when you last told them how precious they are to you. If it was a while ago, go tell them now. But even more importantly if we are trusting in Jesus and know the importance of Christmas, the Love that was expressed at Christmas and the love later expressed by Jesus on the cross then are we speaking out about Christmas and are we speaking out about Jesus and God's Love for us? If you didn't read my previous blog post about our Tree Decorations you can do so at 3 Sleighs for Christmas
A Dose of Encouragement about how God looks after you because He loves you and is not careless like us.
Today I'm going to tell you about another decoration I love putting on my tree every year because this one tells us about The True Christmas. Previously I have been writing about some of our Christmas Tree Decorations. We had 3 Sleighs for Christmas and A Fan for Christmas These two along with this post will be hopefully be a good dose of encouragement for us all at this special Christmas time. All around us at this time of the year we see everything being used to represent Christmas. We see Santas. We see Turkeys. We see Trees. We see Gifts. We see Pictures of Snow. We see Everything becoming Red. But we see less and less of The True Christmas. This decoration was bought in America when we lived in Delaware so it has been on our tree for over 20 years just like the other ones in the last two posts in this series. Yet I still remember the day I bought it. I was with my friend Suzanne in a Christmas Shop she had taken me to. While we were paying for our purchases I noticed something else and as I moved away to get it I said to Suzanne "I must lift one of those" and I was so surprised by her reaction "you can't say that Sandra" I couldn't understand why she jumped in with this so quickly. So I asked her why? Suzanne explained that to use the word "lift" was implying shoplifting. Suzanne knew what I had really meant but she was concerned that the shopkeeper would have heard me and not known my proper intention. I had simply meant I must pick up one of these to add it to my items to buy but the way I had said it meant something else in that part of the world. Now when I look at this Tree Decoration of Mary and Joseph with Jesus I remember three things. Firstly I remember the Original True Christmas when Jesus came into the world. Secondly I remember those 3 years we spent in America where we made new friends and shared in new Christmas time experiences. Thirdly I remember the True Meaning of Christmas which is just the same today as it was all those years ago. Why should it change? Jesus doesn't change. God sent His Son Jesus into the world to be our Saviour Redeemer Ransom to be Immanuel "God with Us" But what do others think of at Christmas? They think of the things I listed at the start of this blog post. They think of all the busy days and activities at this time of the year. They think of the money that will be spent. They think of the holiday from work. They think of Seasons Greetings and Happy Holidays to just mean exactly what the words say. But when they hear Merry Christmas they don't think that it means exactly what it says. They don't consider how it is the commemoration of the miracle of God coming to dwell on earth to live as a human like us so that He can do for us what no-one else could possibly do. No, they hear the words that are intended for them to hear but they think of completely the wrong meaning of the phrase just as that shop keeper could have thought of the completely wrong meaning of my words all those years ago. I love the fact that when I went to take the picture of this decoration there were two lights right above it as if to highlight it particularly because really that is precisely what we should be doing. To so many people Christmas is no longer based on Christ. So let's try to help others to actually think of The True Meaning of Christmas in every opportunity we have so that they may come to know The True Blessing of The True Christmas. I pray you will know the The True Christmas this year and every year to come.

and indeed I do love my husband and I could list a whole string of reasons why I love him but that's not what I'm going to do today. I have seen lots of books and blog posts written about how to have a better relationship with your husband and how to love him and there is a wealth of information out there for people who need to see ideas as to how to get back that love they feel has dimmed but I'm not thinking in that way today. I'm just thinking of how I am so thankful to God that I still love Fred and he still loves me no matter what or who may have tried to make a difference in that situation throughout our many many many years of marriage and the 4 years of boyfriend/girlfriend. I'm thinking about the times when I look at him leading worship in church and just think "I love that man", or the times I see him helping someone with something and I think "I love that man" or when he is smiling in a conversation with a friend, or lying sleeping, or sitting reading, or playing the guitar (with his guitar stare) or when he has on that comical smile as he teases me, or when he walks into the house from a work trip abroad or when he wears a suit. Yes you were probably sitting there following those times I was talking about and sort of understanding but when I got to that last one you probably went "What???" Well I have always loved to see Fred in a suit and I still get a special happy loving feeling when I see him in a suit. I have also had many opportunities to feel like that because Fred mostly wears a suit to church and often has to wear one for work. So hasn't God been good to me giving Fred a love for church and a specific job that means I get to see him in a suit lots of times? I could go back to my list but I don't need to, I think you probably know that I simply mean that there is just that contented happy knowledge that we love each other. So what do I do when I feel like that? When he arrives home from a work trip I can hug and kiss him and talk about his trip and everything that has been going on at home and just spend a lot of time with him. Similarly when he has that comical smile on his face. When he's reading I can sit down beside him and tell him I love him. When he's sleeping I can also tell him but he doesn't hear because I'll whisper and not wake him. When he's helping someone or talking to someone else I'll just catch his eye and smile at him. When he's leading worship I thank God for him - well it's not really appropriate to run up and give him a hug or a kiss is it? Today I'm simply writing about that love we have which gives us the security in our relationship together. The love that hasn't dimmed but it could dim if we let it. That love which sometimes can be thrown out the window when there is a disagreement - but it shouldn't. That love which sometimes can be forgotten about when we have to be apart often - but it mustn't. That love which sometimes people just look on as a kind of contentment but instead it is the deep love which is cultivated by always remembering to share those feelings no matter how insignificant they may seem because they are not insignificant - Love is never insignificant. Next time you feel "I love that man" make sure you tell him at the FIRST suitable opportunity. Even if it is only in a whisper.
